In order to complete any type of project, one must know the basics to begin the task, and the task at hand is to design the interior of a room.
The very first step is to record the dimensions of the room you will be working with. Having a general visual of what the room looks like and knowing its shape is a great starting point, that way you will be able to recognize any problems that you may want to consider before beginning the job.
If you come to the realization that the room that you are working with does in fact have some defects, such as being too narrow or not having a focal point, it may be wise to evaluate the situation now rather than waiting until later.
This will enable you to have a better understanding of your interior design goals.
